The hubby
He won some really cool cowboy boots, from Dan Post.
Dan Post recently had a contest on its Facebook page. My hubby entered the contest and received the most votes in the Men’s category.
For winning the contest, he was able to select the cowboy boots of his choice.
He picked these. Aren’t they fabulous!
The boots
My hubby is so deserving of these boots because he does not ask for a lot of things.
Most of the time, I have to ask him if he needs anything because he always wants me to have the best.
I feel that we both should have the best so I am so happy for my fella.

He looks so happy because cowboy boots are his favorite type of shoes.
He will wear boots raking in the yard. I know he won’t wear these raking the yard. They look fabulous on him.

To say that I love handbags and shoes is an understatement. DSW is one of my favorite stores because I can get cool shoes at an awesome price.
I bought these Madden Girl cowboy boots last month for an awesome price. The boots are comfortable and fashionable.
I like the DSW’s Facebook Page. Recently, they had a DSW Fanatic Frenzy on Facebook going on for its fans.
On my Facebook page, I commented “I am a shoe fanatic”.
They replied to my post, saying that they would send me something for participating on the event.
Well yesterday, I received my surprise via FedEx. It’s a DSW thank you card and this fab tote.
Love the shoe images on the tote and the cute quotes.
One of my favorite quotes on the bag is, “Make life more glamorous, run errands in high heels.”

This bag is too cute and will fit so many different necessities for the day.

Had to try on this tote to see how it looks.

It is a true tote that can go to work and carry your files, nook reader, lip gloss, BE mineral viel, etc. So cool!
Last but not least I wanted to show you my new nail polish from OPI named Keep Me On My Mistletoes.
This color will go with everything. Qvc.com is offering free shipping on an OPI four piece nailpolish set including this color.

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and that you are enjoying the weekend. I am so thankful to God for my husband in my life who is my best friend, and my doggies always make me smile. We prepared the food Wednesday night, but waited until Thursday to eat. While preparing the food, the doggies constantly walked around because of the aromas filled the house. Along with the traditional turkey, we had cooked cabbage, mac and cheese, a Smithfield ham and dressing. We finished it off with apple pie and vanilla ice cream.
We could not go out of town to see family because my hubby had to work today. We still are having a great holiday time. He has not had to work a Thanksgiving Friday in years; but this came up and that’s okay because we have to be thankful for our careers. Even though he worked Friday he’s off Saturday so we get the weekend. Hurrah!
I am not a person who gets up at midnight to catch the black Friday sales. I like relaxing, being at home and seeing what deals may be online. I have not ordered anything so doing pretty good so far. I want to be very sure that what I am buying is a good purchase and not an impulse buy.
JT and Vinny
Would you believe, I won hauteprettypink’s giveaway of Buffalo David Bitton Felow Skinny Jeans on Thanksgiving Day! WOW, this is so cool!
So happy and can’t wait to get the jeans and style an outfit.

Outfit Review
The outfit that I am wearing in the picture is a suede and leather mauve burgundy jacket with studs by Louis del Olio that I adore wearing and it is very comfortable. The silk blouse is a Scholarshop thrift find.
Pants are from a former HSN.com designer, Terry Lewis. They are really one of my favorite pairs of pants. I purchased the Anne Klein shoes at DSW. They make me want to click my heels and say “there’s no place like home, there’s no place like home Aunty Em.” (You know the Wizard of Oz! Doesn’t the color look identical to Dorothy’s ruby red slippers?) My Italian Lire bracelet was a gift from my hubby, love it.
My Gio see if he can see some squirrels in the dark.

Well I was planning on doing a deep conditioning treatment and I needed some plastic caps. So hubby and I stopped by the Beauty Supple store.
I was going through the aisles in the store and didn’t see any plastic caps but I came across this cool hat.
This cap was not plastic but wool and I had to take a look at and it had the nerve to be only $9.99.
Wow what a deal! In this beauty supply store I never know what I may find.
The colors in the hat will go with so many different things. This is only the beginning with the outfits I will coordinate with this cap.

I recently bougha Bare Escentuals holiday kit and I am really loving the Buxom lip gloss, love the tingly feeling of the peppermint.
